Either that or my international criminal conspiracy cartel/Foundation needs to be protected.

All good posts so far.
There really is no such thing as an IP Blocker.

You can't use the internet without an IP address.

Any request for data needs to know the return IP address in order to return the requested data.

It's a really poor description for what is really taking place, hiding or masking your originating IP by replacing it with another that in theory does not lead back to you.
